He was of Irish descent and possessed in a good measure the jovial characteristics of a typical Irishâ€" man. He was a hard working man, a good husband ard father, and a kind neighbor. He leaves to mourn his loss besides a legion of friends a widow and six children. Thechildren are: William Samuel, Thompsin, Robert and two daughter at home.
